Description

The ADM1168 Super Sequencer? is a configurable supervisory/ sequencing device that offers a single-chip solution for supply monitoring and sequencing in multiple supply systems.The device also provides up to eight programmable inputs for monitoring undervoltage faults, overvoltage faults, or out-of-window faults on up to eight supplies. In addition, eight programmable outputs can be used as logic enables. Six of these programmable outputs can also provide up to a 12 V output for driving the gate of an NFET that can be placed in the path of a supply.The logical core of the device is a sequencing engine. This state machine-based construction provides up to 63 different states. This design enables very flexible sequencing of the outputs based on the condition of the inputs.A block of nonvolatile EEPROM is available that can be used to store user-defined information and may also be used to hold a number of fault records that are written by the sequencing engine defined by the user when a particular fault or sequence occurs.The ADM1168 is controlled via configuration data that can be programmed into an EEPROM. The whole configuration can be programmed using an intuitive GUI-based software package provided by Analog Devices, Inc.For more information about the ADM1168 register map, refer to the AN-721 Application Note.APPLICATIONS Central office systems Servers/routers Multivoltage system line cards DSP/FPGA supply sequencing In-circuit testing of margined supplies
